Better start... keep it up!

On the plus side, Notre Dame is beating Syracuse by 15

You don't win at Maryland being down like 10 late and steal a game at Indiana without players who can make shots.

looks easy when you MAKE SHOTS. Don't it.

So what's your suggestion considering we have consistently been one of the worst shooting teams in the Big Ten?

what do you when you miss layups?

 

[HuskerBB]

Good start to 2nd half.   Really need Watson to avoid getting that 4th foul !!

Its been a systemtic issue year over year.

[Huskerpapa]

First half sucked.  Good start to second half.

[nustudent]

Perfectly okay never watching McVeigh play again

[hskr4life]

We just cannot get a foul call.  We try and drive but unless it is absolute hack-a-shack then we do not get a call.

[cozrulz]

Do we practice inbounds plays?

[HuskerBB]

We can't let them get break aways - they are bad in the half court on offense.   (( know teams would say the same thing about us).

You mean the guy who just hit a three?

This is kind of my point.

If we have players...why do we consistently and routinely have issues in making shots.   There's a disconnect here somewhere.   Is it game prep....scouting....motivation....something has to give.

[Huskerpapa]

I will be surprised if we see Isaiah in the second half.

Ironically the same guy that hasn't played defense yet in his career and missed the rim on both his first half shots.

[Huskerpapa]

Good defense by Jack...

I agree that we can never seem to string together (outside a six week stretch a few years ago) a good enough offense to consistently make shots.

 

Other teams have these droughts... but they also find ways to NOT go 10 minutes without scoring.

[hskr4life]

Tied it up!  Hey Hey Hey!

 

It is now a 0 to 0 ball game.  Win the game from here.

[HuskerBB]

Fouls are 5-0 our way - and we are making free throws.  Kind of the opposite of last game.

[Huskerpapa]

Cant seem to get over the hump.  We need to continue the run with the ball in Tai and Glynn's hands.

[hskr4life]

Good lord... outside of Sanders and this Nigel guy... Rutgers has some rough looking players.

 

Their FT shooting is awful!

[hskr4life]

#34 Reminds me of that AA guy we used to have!

[huskerbaseball13]

Sixth Rutgers foul with 12 minutes to go. One on the Huskers. Hopefully we are making our free throws today

[hskr4life]

One bad half... one good half.

 

If there is one consistent thing you can count on for Nebraska... it is this.
